“Alone, you may go faster, but together, you reach far more.” These words, shared by Heike Christel, perfectly capture the spirit of this conversation. In CoCreator Circle, we see ourselves reflected in one another’s light—growing, evolving, and sharing wisdom. Kathrin Schmack expressed it so beautifully: “We only see ourselves fully in the light of our beloved ones.” This is the magic of CoCreation—a space where we inspire, uplift, and transform together.

And of course, what’s a deep, cosmic conversation without an unexpected VIP guest? Enter Mickey, the green parrot 🦜—who may or may not have been the real mastermind behind this discussion. While we spoke of wisdom and transformation, Mickey chimed in with his own contributions (which, if we’re honest, were probably the most profound of all). Some say he was just squawking. We say he was sharing his own wisdom—after all, he’s a part of CoCreator Circle too! 😆

🦜 Even Mickey knows the power of community! He’d tell you himself (if he wasn’t busy overseeing our CoCreative journey) that the best journeys are taken together.

🐍 Embracing the Year of the Wood Snake

Kathrin Schmack shared that the snake is a master of adaptation—moving with the earth, sensing every shift, and never resisting change. 2025 calls us to do the same. Unlike last year’s bold Dragon energy, this year invites intuition, transformation, and deep reflection.

“You can’t force your way through a wall—adapt, shift, and find another path,” Kathrin explained. The Wood Snake teaches us resilience, self-awareness, and the power of flowing with life’s changes. This year is about trusting our instincts, listening to Mother Earth, and moving in harmony with the energy around us. 🌍✨

Heike Christel emphasized the importance of introspection and self-love in the face of change and uncertainty. She shared a personal experience with a garden snake, revealing how mutual understanding and presence shape our relationship with the world. Just as the snake moves with deep awareness, sensing and responding to its surroundings, we are also invited to navigate life with presence, adaptability, and trust in the unfolding journey.

✨ A Time of Renewal & Expansion

Meenakshi explains that the Wood Snake has arrived—not just as a symbol, but as a guiding presence for transformation and new beginnings. 2025—2+2+5 = 9, a year of completion and transition. As Jupiter returns to Aquarius after 144 years, we find ourselves at a powerful crossroads of change. The energy of this year invites us to trust our intuition, embrace the unknown, and move with the wisdom of Gaia.

What are you ready to shed? What new path is calling you forward? The answers are already within—you just have to listen.

Step into the flow of 2025 with us. Let’s CoCreate something beautiful. 💛
